This update features the first playable Jackal agent, a new battle royale-inspired game mode, and the Winter Bash – a jolly way to earn new cosmetics over the holidays.
Something sinister has been lurking in the shadows…the malevolent Jackal organization fights back against Rogue Company by sending out their top hitman, Umbra. Umbra is a zealous and committed Jackal agent that will do anything to fight for his self-proclaimed righteousness. Disguised as a cybernetic spider, Umbra’s remote-control drone can deal explosive damage to unsuspecting enemies – so be on the lookout! Umbra’s passive, Siphon, allows him to gain max health when you earn a down, elimination, or assist on an enemy. Enlist with Jackal by playing Umbra today!
Our Design team at First Watch is excited for players to finally play Umbra! “We’re expanding our roster with our first key character from the Jackal Organization, Umbra,” says Will Fitzgerald, Senior Game Designer behind the new Rogue. “He is our latest Duelist bringing a high risk, high reward playstyle. The terrifying sound effects of Umbra’s ability, which releases his remote control spider ‘a-RC-nid’, are among my favorite elements of his design. Keep an eye and an ear out for both Umbra and his lethal drone!”

Earn money to spend on perks and gadgets and be on the lookout as better and stronger gear spawns each round!
